    I know it's suppose to be funny, but I told my girlfriend to read it and she looked at me weird and then called me a loser.

    Anyways, it's the five books all together. "A Trilogy In Five Parts" or summat like that. I finished <i>Hitch Hiker's Guide To The Galaxy</i> the other day, and now I'm onto... that other one. Something about a Restaurant. I can't remember, it was like... 2 in the morning.

    If you enjoyed <i>The Icewind Dale Trilogy</i> then you might wanna check out <i>The Dark Elf Trilogy</i>. It has been critically acclaimed as one of Salvatore's best series ever. I must say it caught my attention much better than most novels do. Also, <i>The Demon Wars</i> and <i>The Second Demon Wars</i> are rather interesting. <i>The Second Demon Wars</i> is about after the <i>Demon Wars</i> and tends to look a little more into politics. Rather different, I'll give it that.

    [ edit ]
    <i>The Demon Wars</i
    [1] <b>The Demon Awakens</b>
    [2] <b>The Demon Spirit</b>
    [3] <b>The Demon Apostle</b>

    Transition:
    [1] <b>Mortalis</b>

    <i>The Second Demon Wars</i
    [1] <b>Ascendance</b>
    [2] <b>Transcendance</b>
    [3] <b>Immortalis</b>

    Just picked up <i>The Crooked House</i> by Dave Duncan earlier today from my friend's place. I really needed another book; Douglas Adams can only be taken so far before I need a change.

    Finished <I>The Crooked House</i>. Now I'm going through <i>Shooting At Midnight</i>. It's rather good; I can't remember the name of the author, though.

    Can't remember if I posted this one yet, but I don't think so 'cause I was on vacation when I started it. I'm currently reading through <i>Carrion Comfort</i> by Dan Simmons. It's very, very good; the best horror novel I've ever read.

    I recently read Angels and Demons by Dan Brown. It is probably the best book I have ever read. I am currently reading The Da Vinci Code, which is also by Dan Brown, and it is about the same main character as Angels and Demons.
